263 The Power of Everligh (1/2)
The swords pierced through the air with an unearthly howling sound towards the Ishikara soldiers.
Boom!
The swords clashed with shields made of Life energy that was cast by the mages of Ishikara. Some of the swords disappeared when they clashed with the shields but the majority of the swords pierced through the shields and continued to soar targeting the soldiers.
”Ah!”
Pulch!
Pulch!
”Ah!”
When the swords reached the ground, the capital was filled with the screams of soldiers and splashing sounds of blood. Each sword was stabbed into the right side of their chest missing their hearts but they were pinned into the ground like nails.
Looking at hundreds of their comrades pinned to the ground and bleeding, the remaining soldiers of Ishikara shivered in pain and looked at the girl in the sky with horror. The people who were watching this scene through their windows quickly shut their children's eyes to prevent them from watching this horrible scene while their faces turned pale.
A few moments ago they were just living their daily life as usual and never had imagined that their kingdom would be invaded by the famous Black Armored men of King Don. Moreover, they witnessed their King Noa confess about his part in the plot to kill King Don.
The speed the black armored soldiers appeared in the capital and surrounded them was insane as the Ishikara soldiers didn't even have time to prepare themselves for the war.
And the appearance of a Heavenly Level mage demolished their courage to fight since Ishikara's most powerful unit had only Mid level Grandmasters.
”Focus on your attacks on her!”
The few generals who didn't get stabbed by the sword shouted at the men as the long-ranged combat unit including archers and mages fired arrows and spells at Arrora.
Various shapes and beasts made of Life energy like panthers, huge tridents, and howling wolves rushed at Arrora with hundreds of arrows fired by the archers.
However before the attacks could reach Arrora, many figures who were dressed in black robes from head to toe appeared around her and cast a windshield. While Arrora's unit was busy with casting spells to protect her, she raised her hands as another set of swords started to take form above her to the second wave of attack.
”SHIELDS!”
”DEFENSE SPELLS!”
The normal unit and the mages immediately shouted and prepared themselves to face another crushing blow.
The dwarves felt pretty stupid and couldnt rush towards the Ishikara soldiers and get a piece of the action but looking at the powerful attack of Arrora, they knew that the battle is going to end sooner than they expected.
”GO!”
Arrora pointed her fingers at the remaining soldiers who survived the first wave as the swords soared at the soldiers.
”NOA!”
Arrora didn't even look at the result of her attack as she dashed towards the castle to take revenge.
”STOP HER!”
”PROTECT HER HIGHNESS!”
”ATTACK!”
”Shall we attack now, Lady Vivian?”
The mages of Everlight and the soldiers looked at Vivian for her permission but she shook her head as she put her hand on her ear.
”Dark Angels, you can move and capture the generals”
The black-dressed unit of Arrora quickly rushed at the generals and the formidable mages with lightning-fast
”Archers!”
Vivian calmly said but her voice sounded loud due to the life energy amplification as the elven archers quickly stepped forwards and nocked arrows on their bowstrings.
”Immobilize the soldiers!”
Reghys gave strict orders to them that they must minimize the casualties and kill fewer Ishikara soldiers because after they conquered Ishikara, they needed Ishikara's army to defend the kingdom. Besides, avoiding bloodshed would increase their reputation among the commoners, especially the families of the soldiers which would result in less resistance from the people to their new rulers.
Fortunately, Arrora also had the same idea or she wouldn't have left the soldiers alive, but the same can't be said to their King, Noa.
The Dark Angels used the teleporter array to appear behind the mages and generals before they could even react and quickly knocked them out. This tactic messed up the hierarchy of the Ishikara army as well as their coordination.
In the beginning, the Dark Angels of Arrora had only twelve members but now their unit reached the number of fifty-five highly trained Peak Greatmasters and due to the bound energy in their bodies, each of them could easily fight a Low-level Grandmaster.
Every time they appear, they knocked off a powerful soldier, mage, and generals of the Ishikara army. Just as the soldiers were facing this tactic, they heard a low-pitched booming sound and looked up to see hundreds of black dots coming at them.
”SHIELD!”
It took several moments to realize that the black dots were none other than arrows. But they were too slow as the arrows pierced through their armor like soft butter and nailed them onto the ground. At this point, the formidable people of Ishikara were either knocked down by the Dark Angels or hit by the arrow and even their most formidable special unit that made of Peak Greatmasters was lying on the ground injured by Arrora's swords.
